The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us that we can make dua anywhere, at any time, and in any situation - however, he (ﷺ) also taught us that there are certain times when we should absolutely make dua. What makes them so special?
When we make dua at these recommended times, this shows our need, our initiative, and our sincerity in front of Allah (SWT). Think of a teacher who tells his students that he’s always available to answer questions, but the best time to get help is to attend specific office hours.
A student who is in desperate need of help will absolutely show up at that time. Of course Allah (SWT) is more majestic than any human example but that’s the idea here.
The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us that whenever we want to make dua, we should first praise Allah (SWT), then send salawaat upon him (ﷺ), and finally make our dua.
What does it actually mean to praise Allah (SWT) though? He is Allah - the Lord and Master of everything that exists, everything that has existed, and everything that will exist - what could we possibly say that is befitting of Him?
The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us that the best way to praise Allah (SWT) is to say: الحَمْدُ لِله - Alhamdulillah. The best way to praise Allah (SWT) is to thank Him for all the blessings that we enjoy.
